Neglect Glamor Canadians have better facial conâ€" tours than their American sisters, but they do not take full advantase of this asset, says Mme. Helena Rubenstein on a briof visit to this country. She thinks it we had a few "glamor girls" as they have in the United States, we might be more beauty conscious. Skiâ€"ing, skating and tobozzaning are bard on the skin during the winter and golf, tennis and swimming take their toll undor the hot summer sum, but the sports girl who takes eare of her skin can still retain its beauty. A few minutes with her jars of cream at night, and a founâ€" dation makeup during the day will help to counteract the effects of extreme cold or heat, both equally devastating to the girl who wants to keep that youthful, "dowy" look. For the older woman, the beauty expert sugzgests that she > should select two or three lovely colors that are definitely becoming to her and build her wardrobe around that calor scheme. Sho also says that in the hectic pace of the 20th century mode of life, accentuated by our war efforts, the muscles of the face do not get enough help from the majority of us to keep them upliftâ€" ed and youthful. Emotion, tension, fatigue all tend to produce a droopâ€" ing contour, a double chin, lined ekin and sazzing throat. In 1700 an Act was passed by the British Parliament which laid down that any woman, whatever her age and whecher she be marâ€" ried, single or a widow, who by the use of perfume, cosmetics, paint, false teeth, wigs, iron corsâ€" ets, padded bust and hips, or bighâ€"heeled shoos, inveigles a male subject ‘of His Majesty into marâ€" riage, shall be guilty of having broken the law which prohibits the practising of witcheraft and other arts of black magic, and any such mardiage and void Incidentally, most of the cost: umes fer the exhibitien were obâ€" tained from threo northern institâ€" utions â€"â€" because southern women eof the poriod and afterwards either wore out their clothes or eut them up for children‘s dresses, so comâ€" paratively few of them have surâ€" You can teach a young dog new tricks and most important of all, you must make him mind.

She had everything that popularity could win her, except DAN REYNOLDS â€"â€" hero. . He might have had Saily but while he was king on skis : COREY POR»ER was king of the social whirl. So . . . But go on with the story. There was really no doubt as to who would be chosen Queen of the Ice Carnival. All bets were on Sally Blair. Sally was the preitiest, the most popular girl to be invited to the winter festival. Sally, herself, would have been more surprised if she had not been chosen than she was when the committee informed her she had been. It was no smail feather in Sally‘s pretty cap to have been invited by Corey, either. Corcy was president of his senior class, best fraternity on the campus, keyman. He was the only son of Peterson Porter, the steel magnate, no mean accomplish ment in itself. They made a handsome couple, Sally and Corey, swinging along, hand in hand toward the practice hill where contestants would be getting in trim for the big meet the next day. Sally was small and as dark and sparkling as Corey was big and smooth and fair, More than ons head turned to look at them, more than one remark â€" singled them out. "There goes Corey Por ter, senior president, swell guy!" and, "That‘s Sally Blair. She was voted the most popular girl in her school and now she‘s to be Queen of the carnival!" "Remenwber," Corey said, "you‘re my girl this weekâ€"end, Sally. Anyâ€" one who tries to break that up had just better watch his neck!" His look was so fierce, so possessive that Sally laughed. "I gnuess no one will dare try," she said. "That is if he values his neck." But she knew that Corey would find plenty of competition. Wherever she weni Sally always held court. "As | Queen! smug . Corey‘s any way A BREATHâ€"TAKING SCENE Rounding the bend they came on a dazzlingly beautiful sight, wind: rippled snow, sparkling with myr iad tiny diamonds, dark sentinels of pines marching up the mountâ€" tain sides, a blue, blue sky spread like a canopy overhead, and crowds and crowds of brightlyâ€"costumed people. "Isn‘t it lovely?" Sally exclaimed, and then, "Oh, Corey â€"â€" look at that‘" She caught his arm, stand: ing breathless, watching a dark figure poised high above their heads, a figure that vorlaged now with one swift graceful forward movement, poised for the gelandeâ€" sprupg, or jump, rose like a Lird sithouetted against the sky, then skimmed down the trail of the slick steep slope, a cloud of snow like silvery smoke billowing behind, to ®© SERIAL STORY if anyone eise C !" _ Corey Porte: gratification.

"Who is he?" Sally demanded, still wideâ€"eyed and breathless. Neâ€" ver had she seen anything to equal that performance in sheer graco and beauty. "Don‘t you know? That‘s Reyâ€" nolds. He‘s out for the Olympics. He‘ll make it, too, if he keeps up that form. Me‘ll probably walk away with most of the honors toâ€" morrow. At least, as one of his fraâ€" ternity brothers, I can say he‘d just "I‘d like to meet him," Sally said. It suddenly seemed imperative that she should meet this young man. He was the center now of a noisy, enthusiastic ecrowd as Sally and Corey drew near. NO TIME FOR WOMEN Corey glanced at her, sidewise; his blue eyes narrowed. "That will not do you any good," he informed her, crisply. "Reynolds hasn‘t any time for women,. Not even one as deâ€"lovely and desirable as.you, my sweet. Especially one of your kind, I might add." better, since we‘re backing him t> stack up points for dear old Dart: mouth." "Are you afraid you couldn‘t wring his neck?" Sally laughed at him. "What do you mean by ‘on> of my kind‘? I can‘t say I exactiy relish that!" There was not time for Corey to answer this, even with one of his everâ€"ready wiseâ€"cracks, Several of the young people, gathered about Dan Reynolds, recognized Sally and Corey and called out to them. "Hi, there!" "Alleyâ€"oop! It‘s about time you joined us!" "HMero comes the Queen, every» body! Make way! Let‘s have a royâ€" al welcome!" "What did I toll you?" Corey said at Sally‘s side. His handsome face wore a wide grin. 4 tle dainiy shoulders beneath the bulky warmth of her plaid parka, the Looded, windâ€"proof jacket of her smart skiâ€"ing outfit, turned toâ€" ward the others, ‘"Imagine anyone who‘s so courageous on top of a mountain, running away at the foot of one! What a great big heâ€"man our wouldâ€"be Olympic champion is, after all! Did he think I would bite him?" Three loud cheers rang out from lusty young throats as Sally resâ€" ponded with a mocking bow, flashâ€" ing her smiles to the right and left. However, her dark eyes did not leave the figure of the tall, bareâ€" headed boy, remaining silent and apart. THE RUDEST PERSON Someone hastened to go through the formality of introductions, Salâ€" ly extended her hand. Another graâ€" clous gesture. But one that this boy Reynolds accepted coldly. Then he inclined his head briefly, mumbâ€" led some small amenity, swung on his skis, glided away. "Why, he‘s the rudest person 1 ever saw!" Sally‘s face was flushed and hor dark eyes dangerously bright. Then she shrugged her litâ€" This got a laugh, as she had hoped it would. Someone explained that Reynolds actually was afraid of "anything in skirts" for all his bravery and skill. "Though I‘ll bet Sally could tame him," Pudge Wyâ€" "Isn‘t someone going to introâ€" duce us?" Sally inquired. Her smile was just for him now. The Queen singled out a humble subject, beâ€" stowing a special favor, She would show Corey that he was mistaken, Sally had yet to meet the young man who would not have any time for her. He, alone, had not raised his voice in welcome. COPYRIGHT, 1038 NEA SERVICE, INC Dressing Up Your curtains are a definite gauge of your taste, and of how much attention you pay to the principles of decorating. Many windows are likely to be overâ€" dressed, and so it is important to study your home very carefully before you select new fabrics for any of them.

Use inâ€" teresting but unpretentious fabâ€" rics if draperies are called for, Or do not hesitate to eliminate them. In many cases windows can be fully as atractive with just glass curtains of fine net, sheer n in o n, beautiful marquisette, voile, organdy or casement cloth,.

"Well then," Sally said, "If we are going to get started for the twoâ€" hour climb up the hill, suppose you fasten my skiâ€"bindings a bit tightâ€" er and we‘ll get going." A Chebalis, Wash., farm couple has the answer to the problem: "Who gets the white meat?" According to Mr. and Mrs. Arâ€" thur L. Hamilton, there will be no more family quarrels on the point.

"I‘ll take you up on that," Sally said coolly, with a little proud toss of her head. Her heart beat hard with anger and determination. "It is a double dare, Pudge. For Corey‘s in on it too, I‘m sure." She turned to him, her dark eyes dancing now. "Check, Corey, my lad?" A THRILLING CAMPAIGN "Check." He nodded solmenly. That was their phrase to seal a bargain.

Mobbed for Smiling: In many American towns all businesses, transport and pleasure used to cease on Good Friday from % a.m. to 3 p.m., as a reminder of the Crucifixion, and people have been mobbed for smiling and lynched because they ignored this unwritâ€" ten law. Baked Ham Choose ham in size according to the size of family. Wipe ham Bun Eating is not a recent cusâ€" tom. The first people to eat buns were the Egyptians, and the word "bun" is derived from "bous," a horned cake which was an effigy of their sacred heifer, The bun represented the imoon and the cross its four quarters, and was worshipped by the Greeks, Roâ€" mans and Egyptians,. Throwing at Cocke was a .popâ€" ular pastime at Easter Monday fairs about 100 years ago. Men and boys stood some distance away and hurled heavy sticks at cocks, in the same way as they shy at coconuts toâ€"day. This barâ€" barous sport was a salve to their consciences, because the cock crowed thrice during the denial of Our Lord by Peter! If your skin is dry and chapped, try washing it in warm milk.
